Camcorders are an obsession of mine. Especially the SMALL ones. These are my most favorite camcorders that I use a lot, even though I have tons of full frame cameras, cinema cameras, super 35 cameras, I just love camcorders! They don't even have to be 1" sensors or even 4K. I love 1 2/3" sensors. Did I say I love camcorders? I love camcorders! Especially the small lightweight consumer ones. And yes you can get a blurry background with camcorders. yes even with small sensor camcorders. Which ones are my favorite? Well, Panasonic VX981, Canon Vixia G70, Sony CX405, Sony AX700, SonyZ90V. Most of these are 4K. I explain why in this video and show all kinds of video footage samples. Enjoy!

My only gripe with most of the 4K camcorders you showed is that they top out at 30FPS in 4K mode. When you're filming action (sports or other fast movement) or if you want to add some extra stabilization in post then shooting at 60FPS with a high shutter speed makes a *world* of difference to the resulting footage. If you're looking for a camcorder that does 4K @ 60FPS then you'll be paying more and it's likely to be bigger/heavier. I opted for the Panasonic HC-X1500 because it was the lightest 4K/60 camcorder I could find at any price and although it's far from perfect I do like the extra functionality you get for the price. I'm surprised that more vloggers aren't using the small VX981 or CX405 though... they're a much better option (IMHO) than the more common (and more expensive) vlogging cameras so often used. Hell, I've even been known to vlog with my HCX1500 but to do that requires that you've got really strong arms and shoulders 🙂

I couldn't agree more. In Australia, the Legria/Vixia HF G70 is 4k 25/30p for A$1890 rrp. Heading up the price tree all the way to the top of the handhelds gets us the Canon XA75 for $4350 rrp. And it's still 4K 25/30p 4:2:0 8bit, shooting and output. Sony is the same. Just to show how dire it is, Sony is still selling the HXR-NX5R (HD, not 4k) which was first released in 2016. It is an update of the NX5, which was released in 2010. These things are not updated often. Still love my camcorders, though.
@michaelbell75
@michaelbell75 5 месяцев назад
60fps is overrated and way overused. I know two professional videographers who shoot high school sports and both shoot in 4K30. Anyone doing cinematic video is usually shooting at 24fps. I very rarely use 60fps.
@martinXY
@martinXY 5 месяцев назад
@@michaelbell75 It’s more about having the option to use it. I’ll keep doing 25p on my camcorders because I have to, but it bugs me that 60p is everywhere for not-very-much, but no-one is putting into new camcorders. They must still be using the really old processors.
@xjet
@xjet 5 месяцев назад
@@michaelbell75 If you want to do any stabilization of scenes involving movement then you have to use high shutter speeds. If you use high shutter speeds then you have to do high frame rates or you just get a really weird smeary effect. If you're going to shoot in 24/30FPS in daylight conditions then you're also going to need ND filters and remember to set the shutter to 180 degrees or you won't get enough motion blur and then any kind of panning or fast movement looks decidedly unnatural due to the staccato effect this creates. Suddenly you're no longer "point and shoot" with your camcorder. Higher framerates are far more forgiving of automatic shutter settings.
@michaelbell75
@michaelbell75 5 месяцев назад
@@xjet Right. Filmmakers everywhere have been shooting in 24fps for many decades and doing it quite well. There is not a single film you watch shot at 60fps, even action films. 60fps looks awkward unless its slowed down and I dont know anyone who slows all their footage down. It's maybe like 10% of what most people shoot. Im sure Markus would have some useful info on this subject.

The CX-405 you recommended a couple years ago is still going strong for me--neat to see it still made the 2024 list. 📹 I don't need a super-cam, but if I happen to outgrow it, I know exactly which video I'm coming back to.
@mySeaPrince_
@mySeaPrince_ 5 месяцев назад
I got the 405 because Markus recommended it. Have you found the second battery compartment.. The plastic bit has hooks so the best way is to remove the little screw below the power cord, open the battery compartment and remove battery.. then the back, which is clipped in lifts from the screw side but try all round, take your time.. once off.. you will see the clips, push them in and slide the plastic out... There is also a external controller to buy that plugs in below the handle.. all I know about it so far is it can keep the shutter open.. I got a 40.5 UV filter which fits into the grove around the lens, ms polymer or possibly silicon is a non permanent way of fixing it which generates a thread for ND filters etc.. I've filmed Jupiter's Moon's.. a little blurry.. need a clear sky.. but fun to do, you will need to play with the settings.. I filmed again 3 or 4 days after only to discover Ganymede was the other side of Jupiter... turns out it goes round in 7 day's, which is quick.. What Galileo saw over 400 years ago.

I also got the 405 two years ago because Markus was over the top excited about it :) I was secretly hoping that he was still keeping it in the list but no...time moves forward. I bought an old school 2011 cinema camera last week out of bordeom for $600 a Canon C300PL without a lens. I wanted the EF mount but had to get the PL mount and then realized I didn't budget for a used Sony $800 lens. So if anyone has a $100 Pl lens even with scratches I would buy it just to see this old girl' working. Ps I love Markus channel but this lockdown thru me into a 2 year funk of procrastination haha

Looks like my next camera to work with the 405 is the most expensive of these as the middle ones don't seem to out perform the 405.. Apparently there is a blurry function in 405 settings. I've filmed Jupiter's Moon's, a little blurry.. but amazing to do. Did you find the second battery compartment also there's a plugin controller.. apparently it will keep the shutter open and other things.

As a cameraman of over 30 years, also a masters degree in media psychology I sometimes wonder why people are obsessed with the “blurry” background. It has its place but only when the scene dictates, and usually never. People who use this usually have no idea why they are using it, other than they have seen others use it. Watch classic movies and see how cinematography rarely used it, but they used wides, mediums for more info that the brain needs to understand the scene.

I also like Jess Franco and Nicolas Roeg films, each of which lean extra hard on using handheld zooms. It's about attitudes towards cinema, and has next to nothing to do with really caring about the sensor, or even probably the camera, though cameras are cool and I like my BMPCC6K.

I think I'm finally gonna grab one of those 405s. You've talked about it since your very first camcorder video I think, so it's time.

Thanks for sharing these affordable camcorders. The CX405 is amazing for the price. Mainly the optical zoom.

great video, could you use a camcorder for recording a road trip while driving that does not show too much vibration when mounted on the dash or window. Cheers

@markuspix I recently bought a Panasonic HC-V777 camcorder and a Ulanzi Ombra Travel tripod. I quickly realized that for sports recording, the flip out screen is too small and not bright enough. But my iPad works great but now I am wondering how to best attach my iPad to this tripod. I am also dabbling with live-streaming using a Yolobox. so my question to you: Do you have any suggestions for cages/l-brackets etc that work well with camcorders?

Have you done a video on video camera audio recording? If not that could be a good topic. XLR and external against 3.5mm internal recording mics.

I got the vx985m non-NA version of the vx981k, 5 years ago. Didn't use a lot. Now with a HDMI capture card as webcam on my desk.

Hello Markus. Thanks a lot for your review ! I am currently located in Spain and it seems i cant find the Panasonic Videocámara 4K Ultra HD HC-VX981K. Is there something else similar for Europe or any workaround ? Thanks in advance, best regards

Hi, Markus, love your passion! And for another interesting camcorder, is the canon HF G60, which is 1 inch sensor with same shell as g70. Hope it can show up in your next 1 inch comparison video!

Hi, great videos, thanks, do you know the difference between a VX980 and a VX981 please? I am in the UK, and I think the VX980 is the UK version?
